People become immigrants for many reasons.The most common one is economic opportunities.Most immigrants are attracted to other countries by the promise of jobs,farmland,or business opportunities.
Other people become immigrants in order to get away from mistreatment or natural disasters.They are refugees.Some refugees move to avoid wars and political unrest.Others are seeking freedom to express their religious views.Still others are uprooted by disasters,such as terrible flooding or drought.
Some people have become immigrants against their will.Captured in Africa,shipped foreign lands and forced to work as slaves,many early African immigrants to North and South America came in chains.
Except for Native Americans,all people came to the United States from someplace else.For nearly 500years,immigrants have landed on America's shores seeking a better life.Throughout American history,immigrants often worked low-paying,dangerous jobs that other people refused to do.
Immigrants from around the world helped shape American life.Many immigrants absorbed the customs and language common to most Americans.They also brought their own traditions,including music and foods.Over time,many of these traditions have become part of American life.
The first European immigrants to America hoped to colonize new lands.By the mid-1500s,Spaniards had ventured into Florida,California,and the American Southwest.French immigrants arrived in the early 1600s and built their first colony in Canada.The English also arrived in the early 1600s.They established 13colonies along America's AtlanticCoast.
In the 1700s,England became the major power in colonial North America.But many European immigrants came to live in the English colonies.They included people from Sweden,Holland,Germany,Scotland,and Ireland.
Immigrants still come to the United States seeking freedom and economic opportunities.Most new immigrants no longer come from Europe.They come mainly from Central and South America,the Caribbean,and Asia.
Today,the U.S.government limits the number of immigrants into the country each year.People who sneak illegally into the United States are called illegal immigrants,who,if caught,would be sent back to their home countries.

One of the most important rules is never to compromise on the things you ask for or desire or it will badly affect your life and peace of mind.Keep in mind your basic expectations of a dream job.They might be something about money or you might find they have something to do with time off.Whatever they are,make sure that you do not accept a job without them.Your requirements might not be easy to meet,but you have the right to try and achieve them.
What's more,don't shy away from odd(临时的)jobs that might actually take you to the place that you want to be in.Sometimes,finding the right job is a matter of luck and chance after you have been searching and putting in a lot of efforts.And if something unexpected happens,remember that taking the chance is of great importance and is something you might want to seriously consider.As long as you keep your goals in mind,you are going to be doing much better than other people during the job search.
If you are looking for the right job,another thing that you can do to make sure that you get the right kind of employment is to market yourself.When you do nothing to push yourself forward,you will be the one suffering for it.If required,give enough encouragement to yourself and try to confidently look at all that you have.Make sure that you can show your skills and abilities.If the jobs that you have set your sights on are challenging,set goals for yourself and work hard at them.The more efforts you put in marketing yourself,the more your chances of obtaining the job you like there will be.
Remember that when you are working on a job search,you should not short-change yourself.This is because you will only harm yourself by setting low goals.
